Lucala - The Angolan Women's Organization (OMA) delivered teaching materials to the municipality of Lucala, Cuanza-Norte Province, on Friday to reinforce the literacy and emancipation program for its members and peasant women.
The material delivered by the general secretary of OMA, Joana Tomás, includes manuals for the three literacy modules, notebooks, ballpoint pens, pencils and erasers.
She clarified that the program to reinforce the fight against illiteracy consists of strategies for permanent self-improvement for women, which should find training to be the key point.
Joana Tomás advised that the material be delivered free of charge to the beneficiaries in the literacy classrooms, to boost the work of the brigades.
She recommended the involvement of all MPLA party activists in voluntary action to educate women, ensuring necessary support in teaching aids and other teaching materials.
In the municipality ofLucala, Joana Tomás visited former OMA leaders, to whom she gave encouragement for their work in favor of the organization.
The initiative is part of a tour that the ruling party’s female wing boss is making to the provinces of Bengo, Zaire, Uige, Cuanza Sul and Cuanza Norte, to launch a project to support and encourage peasant women, called
"Kudima".
